Father's Day

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him. Psalm 103:13

The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. Proverbs 23:24

* * * * * * *

Being a dad means following in the steps of our Heavenly Father
who is also our Dad…
always telling the truth;
always ready to encourage,
correct, and rebuke;
always building up, not tearing down;
always ready to sacrifice for the ultimate good;
always there;
always caring;
always loving.

It's hard work being a dad.
Just look at what all God has had to put up with,
and yet He's still there for us to come home to.

I wanted to share this over a cup of coffee
and know that others would enjoy it too.

I will lay my head down to sleep and pray the lord.........

God bless us all.

The Last Word

You may be standing at a "Red Sea" in your life and all the powers of hell pushing on your back. Child of God hold fast God has the Last Word concerning any of our "Red Seas".

You may feel you are "walled in" and cannot get out, God has the Last Word on all our walls.

You may be facing "rivers and fires" in life and feel you are going to "drown and burn". God has already promised Isaiah 43:2. He has the Last Word.

When religion hung Jesus on the cross and put Him in a tomb , He rose from the dead, God had the Last Word. When Jesus walked among the people ministering by Gods Power , God had the Last Word. God sent His Son to do the works of the Father, God had the Last Word. He has promised to return for the Bride and even though some doubt it God has the Last Word.

There are many prophecies yet to be fulfilled but they will come to pass, for OUR GOD HAS THE LAST WORD!

He hears the cries of those who call upon Him, just hold fast when He says "enough is enough" He has the Last Word.

He will speak to the final souls "enter in" or "depart from me I never knew you" , for in the end He has the Last Word.

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah 43:2

May the above bless and encourage you, I pray.

Building of the Mosque

I was greatly moved in the Spirit after I saw a warning video regarding the Muslim Mosque they are about to build on Ground Zero in NewYork.

We know from God's word that the days will become as in the time of Noah and Sodom and Gomorrah. And as we may have observed, these days are upon mankind.
We don't have to fear, for we will be protected by the Lord Himself just as Noah was safe in the ark.

Nevertheless we don't need to stick our head in the sand, but be aware of what is happening and act accordingly.

This video explains why the Muslims want to build their mega mosque at Ground Zero, NewYork City, and what their real intentions are than what they claim it to be, "honoring the victims of 911". Weren't the muslims the ones who brought the towers down to start with, killing thousands of innocent people?

Their way of acting should not surprise us, just remember the slaughter of thousands of people over the years by their hands.

Don't kid yourself, it is not going to be funny, but rather frightening for those who don't know Christ as their Savior.

Leaders allowing this mosque to be build, are as blind as can be, since they have forsaken the ways of the Lord God. The "Christian" nations will be destroyed by God's enemies, as the Israelites were in the days of the Old Testament, because of their disobedience and rebellion against God Almighty.
They can't see what is about to come over them and over the people they supposed to protect and shield.
Soon the cry will go out for the mountains to fall upon them to cover them from the wrath of God.

And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth. Isaiah 2:19

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Revelation 6:16,17

Reflections on the Ground Zero Mosque

Prepare yourself, I pray.

Think this over!

Should our God save the nations from the mess they put themselves in, or bless the people who don't care to know God's word, or who curse Him, mingle in the occult, do the things which are an abomination unto God?

Who is sincerely seeking God's face and walking in His will?

Who will forsake this world and all that is within it and follow the Lamb?

Who will deny their own "old" flesh and take up their cross, serve others (without gain) and thereby glorifying God?

God promises of deliverance, healing, miracles, blessings are for His followers, His children. Not for a greedy nation, which is stiff necked and wallows in sin, or for lukewarm so called "Christians".

People have to be willing to make sacrifices for God's sake, in order to be a real example of Christian living. The "sacrifice" of self; to let down the pride, the lust for money and the high self esteem. But rather esteem high, He who deserves it, our God and Father, His Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost, the Comforter.

Matthew 16:24,25... Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

Romans 12: 1,2... Ours is the daily sacrifice of the sinful self on the cross of Christ.... Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

In the Truth of God's word,

JUST CHECKING IN

A minister passing through his church
In the middle of the day,
Decided to pause by the altar
And see who had come to pray.

Just then the back door opened,
A man came down the aisle,
The minister frowned as he saw
The man hadn't shaved in a while.

His shirt was kinda shabby
And his coat was worn and frayed,
The man knelt, he bowed his head,
Then rose and walked away.

In the days that followed,
Each noon time came this chap,
Each time he knelt just for a moment,
A lunch pail in his lap.

Well, the minister's suspicions grew,
With robbery a main fear,
He decided to stop the man and ask him,
'What are you doing here?'

The old man said, he worked down the road.
Lunch was half an hour.
Lunchtime was his prayer time,
For finding strength and power.

'I stay only moments, see,
Because the factory is so far away;
As I kneel here talking to the Lord,
This is kinda what I say:

'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, LORD,
HOW HAPPY I'VE BEEN,
SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP
AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN.
DON'T KNOW MUCH OF HOW TO PRAY,
BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.
SO, JESUS, THIS IS JIM CHECKING IN TODAY.'

The minister feeling foolish,
Told Jim, that was fine.
He told the man he was welcome
To come and pray just anytime.

Time to go, Jim smiled, said 'Thanks.'
He hurried to the door.
The minister knelt at the altar,
He'd never done it before.

His cold heart melted, warmed with love,
And met with Jesus there.
As the tears flowed, in his heart,
He repeated old Jim's prayer:

'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, LORD,
HOW HAPPY I'VE BEEN,
SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP
AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN.
I DON'T KNOW MUCH OF HOW TO PRAY,
BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.
SO, JESUS, THIS IS ME CHECKING IN TODAY.'

Past noon one day, the minister noticed
That old Jim hadn't come.
As more days passed without Jim,
He began to worry some.

At the factory, he asked about him,
learning he was ill.
The hospital staff was worried,
But he'd given them a thrill.

The week that Jim was with them,
Brought changes in the ward.
His smiles, a joy contagious.
Changed people, were his reward.

The head nurse couldn't understand
Why Jim was so glad,
When no flowers, calls or cards came,
Not a visitor he had.

The minister stayed by his bed,
He voiced the nurse's concern:
No friends came to show they cared.
He had nowhere to turn.

Looking surprised, old Jim spoke
Up and with a winsome smile;
'the nurse is wrong, she couldn't know,
That he's in here all the while .

Everyday at noon He's here,
A dear friend of mine, you see,
He sits right down, takes my hand,
Leans over and says to me:

'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, JIM,
HOW HAPPY I HAVE BEEN,
SINCE WE FOUND THIS FRIENDSHIP,
AND I TOOK AWAY YOUR SIN.
ALWAYS LOVE TO HEAR YOU PRAY,
I THINK ABOUT YOU EACH DAY,
AND SO JIM, THIS IS JESUS CHECKING IN TODAY.'

May God hold you in the palm of His hand
And Angels watch over you.

Be blessed in Christ,

To be Ready is the KEY word!

We prepare ourselves either way and take all world events/happenings into consideration regarding the signs of His return. We may be right at the beginning of the Tribulation, but how far our Lord allows us to be in it is up to Him. We may hear the heart wrenching cries of those who are lost in sin and the storms raging as Noah did, while he and his family were save in the ark.

Or we may not go through the Tribulation at all. If Jesus comes for His Bride tomorrow, I welcome the awesome celebration of His return. If He comes after a couple of years, I am ready.

Do we need to go through the tribulation, we'll go. Many have suffered before us, although the Great Tribulation will be as never has been before and never will be in future days. For this I believe God will save/keep us.

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

Perhaps Jesus returns after 3 1/2 years of tribulation, but it should not matter to us what date and time we will meet Him, if we stay ready and prepared. AMEN!!

To be READY is the key-word and this is one of the reasons, I believe, that no one knows the day and the hour of Christ's return, except the Father. The day and the hour is also kept secret from the powers of darkness as not to be in the way or any hindrance of God's command for His Bride to come forth and being lifted up to meet her Bridegroom in the air. And we will meet Him in a twinkling of an eye, the Scripture states.


And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. Luke 21:27,28

We'll see you THERE, yonder... on the other shore.

Please, read these important pages "Prophecies for You"

PRAISE HIS NAME FOR EVER!

Will you hear the trumpet sound?

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 Timothy 3:1

With all that we see around us, one may feel like Noah, while building the ark. Sin and disasters were rampant as we see now, and more so. Our only Hope is in Christ, and we better start hiding in the "Ark", to stay safe. AMEN!

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him! Isaiah 5:20-23.

The terrible events coming over this planet are presently escalating... the oil spill, earthquakes, vulcanic eruption, airplane disasters one after the other, increasing crime even in our rural area where murder was unheard of.

These "accidents" are signs of the time... and well.. the END-TIME. The greed and sin of mankind is running over the brim. Jesus says that perilous times are at hand. It is running its course, as we have noticed the things happening on this planet. It will get far worse according to Revelation. Time to prepare ourselves and cover under the mantle of Christ. His return will be next.

Jesus says about the signs of the time to look at the trees, when they start budding we know that spring is arriving shortly after this.
We can easily estimate a time figure, same as you know that after a few months of spring, summer will be here.

I feel like I’m floating on the ocean with no land in sight, but I will be calling upon my Father, through Christ. I have been on many rough waters and "leaking vessels", but one call upon God having faith in Him, will bring me safely to the "harbour". God looks after the birds and has counted the hairs on my head.. He will lead me through the storm to the home He has prepared for me, a place of eternal rest and peace. AMEN!!

In the love of the Father,
Minister Dr. Trudy Veerman
